Thanksgiving ranks as a beloved occasion for many, and it’s one of the busiest days for hosting at home. You don’t have to buy presents, dress in costume or fret about being pinched for not wearing green.
On Thanksgiving, your main concerns are enjoying a tasty turkey supper, watching football, taking a snooze, eating seconds, watching more football and simply relaxing with loved ones.
Now that’s a holiday!
If you’re thinking, “That’s all fine unless I’m the one responsible for preparing the entire spread,” good news — you don’t have to be the cook this year. There are many choices for ordering Thanksgiving dinner to go from grocery stores and restaurants you trust.
It just depends on how much you want to spend.
